Summary

Construction kicks off on Legacy Square, Sanford’s new affordable housing project, bringing 19 brand-new single-family homes to Central Florida. Funded by Seminole County’s $1.4 million and a $1 million contribution from Wharton-Smith, Incorporated, the development is a community-driven effort led by Habitat for Humanity Seminole Apopka. Families build sweat equity while gaining the tools for long-term homeownership, supported by existing Habitat homeowners like Betsy Lazu who see these homes as more than shelter — they’re the foundation of a resilient, connected neighborhood. All 19 homes are slated for completion by Fall 2027, marking a major step toward solving the region’s housing crisis and proving what’s possible when government, nonprofits, and private partners unite for a shared vision.
